Posts Tagged 'Racism'

A friend strongly opposed to immigration but explained his position and it seemed racism free to me.

He said it simply wasn’t fair. When he was young, nobody ever advised/told him that the future economy would involve large numbers of people from other countries freely being allowed to work and live in the UK, and with English being the lingua franca, these migrants from a young age very early on were exposed to English and and learned it well enough for it to be a non-problem with work and life in the UK. Neither did anyone tell him that he should learn a few foreign languages, so that later on in life he too could migrate to an EU country and work without any language barrier. Now it’s too late. He feels that he is too old to acquire the ability to learn and he feels he wouldn’t like to learn. Even if he did manage to learn one, because he’d be moving to a smaller jobs-market country, it would naturally be a lot harder to get a decent job there anyway, and at the same time the jobs market in the UK is also more difficult because of the number of people chasing those jobs. He’s also not happy that he was never given any say in the matter of the free movement of people He said what was signed up for in the 70’s bears little was resemblance to today. The “lower economy” countries (from which most immigrants come, e.g. Poland) were never part of the “Common Market” then; It was the ‘high economy’ counties that the EEC.

Why would he be forced to live in a different culture with different unpleasant weather when he’s happy with established/traditional)English culture (and it’s weather)? Why should he placed in a position whereby any children he had might not get as good an education overseas. Same for health care provision and so on. If indeed he had to work overseas, why must he have to choose from ‘lessrrer universities’ or health service, sports facilities, watching cricket or the league team of his choice. Why should he simply lay down and accept all the imposiitions the EU is forcing upon him. Why can’t he be allowed to just be the way he was.

I found his points very worthy of sympathy and I could understand very well why he wanted greater immigration control and it didn’t seem racist at all, but that’s the way pro-Brexiters were usually portrayed – as racist insular biggots who simply didn’t like foreigners in the UK. I must admit, those thoughts crossed my mind too once in a while.

A family member voted for Brexit too, saying they disagreed with the EU greavy train.

So, although Brexit is over a year old already, don’t see all Brexiteers as racist bigots.

I still believe the only racism worth paying attention to is when meaningful discrimination occurs, i.e. has a meaningful outcome (like as regard to lower salary, seeking employment, business deals, school places, hospital treatment, treatment by police, etc). Racism is of course wrong and stupid, but when it comes to racist name calling….. although wrong, derogatory and intimidatory, surely it isn’t really someone should get hung up about is it?

QPR’s (football club) Anton Ferdinand earns (possibly more than) what elite criminal bankers and politicians earn (even considering political gravy-training) is probably going to have a very comfortable life far better than 99% of british people. Any racist words should have been water of a ducks back. But he behaved like a little little immature boy who got upset about it and started balling (no pun intended).

People who know me may find my words uncharacteristic and very harsh, but there’s a reason behind it. Lets assume John Terry (of Chelsea football club), the supposed offender – who was found innocent of all charges in an English Court of Law called Ferdinands mother something awful and other awful things like Ferdinands penis was the size of a pigmy maggot…. you know… something stupid and horrible like that. There is no way such stuff would ever make it to court. Think of your slur, I dunno, the point is why should the supposed racist language Terry allegedly said end up in court and why should it get him banned and have his name blackened?

Why was the supposed racist language which was utterly trivial be entertained?

Now that the referee Mark Clattenburg has supposedly used what one guesses is racist language against two Chelesa players, it’s going to be very interesting to see if the interestingly names Clattenburg will be treated the same as John Terry.

If I was a betting man, I’d put a wager down that they won’t.

P.S. Ashley Cole was 100% right to make that tweet. I think intelligent people will understand why it was withdrawn.

I’ve just come back from a rural part of the Muslim world – the kind of place that traditionally makes its money from agriculture but has in recent times, tried to gain more money from tourism.

There was one white tourist there, British or American (probably British) sporting a T-shirt with a marijuana leaf on it and with the headline words “FUCKIN’ MAGIC” along with some accompanying text similar to “you never feel down when your on a high”.

What a piece of white trash.

I would hazard a guess that the T-shirt reflected his opinions of the matter, and before anyone’s fingers start to get itchy, this isn’t about his opinions, to which he is perfectly entitled, but about him shoving those opinions in my face in a very vulgar way. The people there are quite humble and polite – salt of the earth kind of people – the kind of people that put the west to shame.

If I was back home in Manchester, him ramming such crap down my throat would be much less of an issue. After all, western ‘culture’ (for want to of a better word) has been in the gutter for some time now. But in this environment, this society, this culture, the guy was way out of line.

While we are told not to judge a book by it’s cover (a saying I feel is overly and incorrectly applied) but if on that cover there was a picture of the Taj Mahal, it’s a fair bet that the books content is not going to be about the Russian Revolution, astrophysics, or the fraud of Neo-Darwinism!

And so looking at this guy: crew cut cum skinhead, army style trousers, bit on the fat side and earrings, then my guess is that he was pro-narcotic, used drugs or tried to portray himself as ‘cool’ because he was promoting drug culture.

I can imagine his reaction of walking down the suburban streets of Bradford or Bristol if he saw a T-shirt advocating immigrants defraud the benefits system, for the death of Salman Rushdie or for the firebombing of public houses. He wouldn’t be a happy chappie, and if my picture of him is correct, I bet he would not stay quiet about it, but staying quiet was no doubt, exactly what he was expecting from the locals who has little choice other than to see his pro-narcotic and intimidating words.

The guy revealed the imperialist mindset resembling “When abroad, to hell with the locals, their society customs and norms. Chuck them in the bin ‘cos superior whitey is here, he who knows what’s good for you and laughs at your backward ways.”

I have a number of criticisms of the society I live in, and sometimes, but very rarely, I voice them, but my criticisms are usually far removed from societal norms, values and culture (e.g. I have criticisms of locals attitude to litter, transport & infrastructure as well as education) but I don’t shove my views in front of anyone, and only express them when asked first.

Some of this white trash are holding signs up saying things like “Muslim Extremists Go to Hell” – what Muslim extremists??? What it actually means is “Muslims go to hell”. The illogical appearance of the word ‘extremists’ is to try and sanitise their hate of Muslims and Islam. While I think the British police are largely scum, the people taking part in this demonstration are worse than scum.

As for Luton Borough Council (LBC) refusing the planned march, that was a stupid (or purposeful) thing to do. They should have done what they do with all marches these days… allow it and then afterwards, completely ignore it!

I feel so far removed from the white trash in that video. I am so glad that uglyness no longer touches my life. My Hijrah has proven to be good, but my heart aches for those poor people who have to live with such stuff every day. Well, when the majority of people in the UK become Muslim (many if not most of them will be white or mixed :)))) ) then at least they will be lucky enough to see the UK declaring itself to be an Islamic state. InsyaAllah, and the good thing, if the UK is ever to become a Muslim nation, is, I believe, that the huge majority of the people will actually WANT it to happen – so terrible their lives will have become outside Islam.

“FINALLY! I’ll keep on praying that european people start to realize that Islam is NOT a religion: it is a political supremacist ideology based on hate! STOP THEM NOW! Congratulations for the brave people of Luton!”

Sadly the mental contortions of the person who wrote it, forgot to say he swapped the word Islam for Zionism. Well “Lionheart” the white trash coward whose site hosts that comment has a shield with a picture of the cross of St. George and the star of David. Funny how he is utterly ignornat of the shameful things the so called Christian west inflicted upon the Jews. You see, Lionheart is a Zionist (‘Christian’ or ‘Jewish’ – excuse the oxymorons, it makes no difference) and will do whatever it takes, including a reinvention of history to try and attack Islam, but he will fail.

I don’t think people have fully addressed this issue. Barelustonly is like many extremely wealthy people, seems coated with an aura of financial sleaze and fascism, and his past comments make you wonder why on earth Italians keep electing him.

But the tanned comment isn’t just another display of idiocy, but racism. Because under the tan will therefore, in lustonly’s eyes, lie a default white person. Barelust cannot contemplate there are people who. by default. are not white. No doubt lusty babes has a whale of time when prince Phillip pops his gerryhatrick head around for a chat.

Got a mole? Don’t worry, there’s potential help for you.
But not if the skin underneath is African!

Are you one of the many thousands of people with a mole? Bet you’ve had it since you can remember right? Well I’ve got good news for you: transitional moles have been discovered. That’s right. If the mechanism of their fleeting existence can be determined then you too may be able to benefit from this discovery. That is, if your not Black, in which case it doesn’t matter if you have a mole or not.

I am a huge fan of George Galloway (GG). I am also a member of RESPECT. I share many of GG’s views, which are the principles on which RESPECT was built on. Perhaps because I like him a lot that I feel extra sad when GG says things which I believe are ill founded. True to form, in my belief that NO man should go unquestioned no matter what message he delivers (voices for truth included – as truth can never give a bad answer to a question), I want to raise a number of issues here, about GG – the best politician I’ve ever had the pleasure to know. I also contributed to his legal fund against the Telegraph which ran the stories on the fireproof documents (forgeries of course) ‘found’ in the burning Iraqi ministry of oil. – P.S. Despite reassurances that the money would be retuened after the case, I havent got mine back yet, although I’ve not asked for it either.

Anyway,

GG presents a radio Show called “the Mother of all Talkshows” on TalkSport radio. You can go to GG website called spidered news to listen to it. And please do. It’s great to hear his views and a number of the intelligent callers who discuss wmongst other things, political issues.

GG: Here’s Mark in Hampstead. Go ahead Mark

M: Yeah Hi George how are you doing.

GG: Hi.

M: Just a question for you. There’s a guy on the internet, I don’t know if you’ve come across him , called Frank Weltner, who talks about a lot about Zionist conspiracy theories.

GG: No I’ve not heard of him, no.

F: Oh right I just really wanted to see what your views are but if you’ve never heard of him…i suppose…

GG: I’ve not but, I’m against most conspiracy theories and when I heard the words Zionism and conspiracy in the same sentence Mark, I always get nervous, because I don’t like anything that smacks of racism and anti-Semitism is of course, racism of the most poisonous kind.

George, what on earth are you talking about? A man of your intellect connecting Zionism with anti-Semetism? Good grief George, you seem to think Zionism is a Yiddish or Hebrew word for Judaism. It’s not! I was flabbergasted when you said this. People who attack Zionism are not being racist. Zionism is a political philosophy which iteself is a great and powerful source of racisism. People who oppose Zionism are not racists, rather, they are the ones who OPPOSE racism. How could you be so utterly wrong my good man?.

There are white Christian Zionists and there are White and Middle East Jewish Zionists (white European Jew converts i.e. Khazars and Semeties respectively) and It’s my opinion there are some Muslim Zionists too (e.g. some Turkmen and some Arabs). Indeed you yourself frequently decry the tyranny of Muslim puppet governments and corrupt Kings. Zionism contains within itself superiority and domination. It draws occidentals and Semites and even black people into its ranks under the guize of monotheastic apocalypic religionis, and then these very people discriminate against the Jews, Christians and Muslims who do not panser to their perverted doomsday vision that what they are work for is what God has proclained in Judaic, Christina and Islamic prophecy, whereas in fact, they are doing the UTTER reverse. It is these Zionists that are ushering in the exact opposite. The tyrannical, evil blind hatred anti-christ prophecy. The evil, oppressive murderous tyranny the Zionists are working towards will not bring the Messiah back, but the Anti-Christ, the dajjal. the beast. You can see it with godless Israel today. None of the Jews or Christins or Muslims that support the godless fake state of Israel today are implementing the code of practive God has revealed to them in their scriptures. Instead they follow the most bleak and hideous and enduring apartheid we have ever seen.

I cannot believe a man of your intelligence can be so totally wrong about this. I strongly advise you to get some research done on this topic George as it is very much to your detriment that you are deeply ignorant on this issue.

27-10-07. GG’s 4 hour marathon. Spidered News. 48m:15s

GG: Here’s Diane in Newham. Hi Dane. Welcome

D: Hello George.

GG: Hi.

D: It was about the time the Americans were either going into Afghanistan or had already gone into Afghanistan, and in those days, I used to listen to a different speeh radio station that I think took their news from ITN. And this was a short news trail, and it was Ariel Sharon, and he turned round and said yes, today Afghanistan, tomorow Iraq and then Iran. I just couldn’t believe my ears.

GG: There’s no doubt Diane that one of the most powerful motives for attacking iran is becasuse it would be an attempt to destroy the very last country in that region that has any ability at all to stand up to Israeli expansion and Israeli dictat. There’s no doubt that the strong supporters of the war in washington are the strongest supporters of Israel and there’s no doubt that Iraq was broken to suit Israel as well as many other reasons and Iran would be as well.

D: YEs but what it means {is that} we’re fighting Israels war.

GG: Well were really fighting Americas war becasue Israel fights Americas wars. Its not that America works for Israeel its that Israel works for Americaa Dian.

D: YEs but it was all those those years {that it was} already planned.

GG: OK. Thank you very much Diane in Newham
George is straining in his description of the Iranian opposition against Israel. I get the impression he is trying not to tell the actual reality that the good people of Iran would like nothing better than for that evil fake state to disband so that Palestinians could regain control of their lands once more, I.e. for whatt we know of as Israel to simply collapse. Perhaps he doesn’t want to give any kind of support to those who make those false claims about what Amhadinejad said about Israel, i.e. the lie that Ahmadinajad said he wants to wipe Israel off the map – a lie which is meant to imply total military destruction.

But I have to say, that’s not my Impression. This call has left me with the impression he didn’t mention the reality becasue he would argue against those who say Israel DOED NOT have the right to exist.

And he absolves Israel from blame in US war mongering.

Once again however, he could not be more completely wrong when he gives the ‘corrction’ that Israel is fighting America’s wars. George, answer me this. If Israel is fighting Americas wars, Where was the Israeli contingent in Central and Southern America, Gulf War I (Desert Strom), Bosnia/Kosovo, Afghanistan, Vietnam, Norea, Cambodia, Laos, Somalia? George, you are absolutely 100% wrong on your ideas about the Israeli/US relationship and that of Zionism. Scarily wrong. My most excellent comrade, you need to spend some time researching this. My advice: do it today my son, and do it now!

How could you not know this? I am sure you did your homework on Senator Coleman when you went to Capitol Hill to answer questions on the bogus oil kickbacks allegations. I’m sure you did your homework into the funding of a number of US senators and congressmen. How could you not already know that the heavy pro-Israel Zionist Jewish and Zionst Christian presence in both houses and also the pro-Israel US president. Donb’t you know every presidentail candidate has to publically declare his intention to protect Israel before he can be elected-cum-selected as US president. Don’t you know many of the Media’s tycoons and businessmen are pro-Israeli Zionst Jews and Christians?

…
GG: And By thy way, I’m not holding any candles for Ahmadinejad. I don’t even like him.

Have you ever met him George? Have you discussed politics with him? Have you researched his politics George?

——————————————————————

George. You calim to be a man of God. Religious dogma from scripture indicated homosexuality is a sin. Yet, you seem to fight on the side of those who wish to engage in homosexuality and against those who oppose homosexuality. If you would be so generousm, I’d appreciate it if you would explain why on this issue you believe in God yet rebel against Gods condemnation of this practice.

GG: Here neal in ealing.

N: Hi George how are you doing man.

N: Listen, I’ve got enought respect for you George, yeah,

GG: Thanks mate.

N: You know, a member of parliament and speaking out for people and doing everythign you can. But can I ask you one question

GG: Yeah

N: I just want to ask you one question yeah,

GG: Yeah yeah.

N: The country and everyting in the world, its in like, it’s in catatastrophy yeah. Right, now there’s one book, I’m indian by the way yeah, I was born in Hinduism, I just want to let you know that right, but, there’s this(?) book on this earth, that proclaims there’s a prophecy, There’s a prophecy and it’s being fulfilled now. It is actually happening. everything that’s happenened, you know from day one, is happening now.

GG: OK whats the book an what the prophecy Neal

N: The prophecy, that Gog and Magog, will rise again, yeah the west, yeah, and everything which, everything that the Bible has proclaimed has been/is being fulfilled. Believe me. I was brought up in Hinduism, yeah bit I’ve searched every religion and the only explanation I get, yeah, and exactly with England as well, England based its foundation on Christianity, but in recent years, like the last 20 years, it’s lost, it’s divorced the only God that would make it survive.
